- A couple argues before their wedding.

Rachel and Jimmy are about to get married at the courthouse. They were due to be married before, but Rachel had called off the wedding because she wasn't ready. Feeling pre-wedding nerves and jitters, Rachel decides to get a "redo" procedure, which allows people to mentally undo past mistakes. She decides to experience what life would be like if she hadn't gone on her first date with Jimmy. Assured that she was better off with Jimmy and life without him wasn't as good, she's now ready to move ahead.
But Jimmy is hurt upon hearing about Rachel's doubts and redo, and he decides to do a redo of his own, upsetting Rachel. Soon they go back and forth, trying to one-up one another, until their argument reaches the breaking point and the future of their relationship is called into question.
Directed by John Paul Summers from a script co-written with Matt Black, Melissa Lehman and Michael Tacconi, this funny, intriguing short opens with a beautifully shot sequence of a potential couple meeting for drinks on the levee at sunset. Captured in luminous cinematography, the scene is lush with an aspirational, romantic sheen, and the looks between Jimmy and Rachel hold the promise of attraction and affection.
The next scene, however -- of Rachel in a doctor's office, coming back to consciousness after a "redo" procedure -- is more akin to a sci-fi film. As we watch the emotional fallout of that procedure, the storytelling weaves the futuristic conceit with the romantic premise, achieving funny, fascinating and ultimately resonant effects. As it turns out, the redo is more of a personal exploration for Rachel, who has had jitters about marrying Jimmy in the past. She's a flighty, whimsical character in general, but the redo is intended as a way to cast out any lingering doubts that life would be better if she didn't marry Jimmy.
Jimmy, however, interprets Rachel's need for a redo differently and is hurt that she still has doubts about him and their marriage. He does his own redo, choosing to envision life without Rachel. This leads to a toxic cycle, as they get redo after redo. We unfortunately never see the redos play out, but the storytelling focuses less on the paths not taken and more on how this cycle affects their love and relationship with one another. It's not the content of the redos themselves that is the problem, but the dynamic that Jimmy and Rachel get caught up in, as they stop listening to each other and instead compete against each other for the better, happier redo.
Actors Melissa Lehman and Michael Tacconi deftly play both the romantic and comedic elements of their characters and relationships. Their acceleration into a heightened form of bickering, upping one another and feeding off each other's anger is funny and perhaps uncomfortably relatable. But when that cycle plays out, they realize they've hit the breaking point of their relationship, with no way forward together.
The final section of REDO moves into a more melancholic direction, with both Jimmy and Rachel on their own. Yet both find their way back to their point of origin as a couple together. They're more weary, and they've seen each other at their worst. Yet, in some fragile way, they choose each other again -- perhaps acknowledging that couples do have to choose one another again and again, after each bump or explosion on their journey together. - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน

I think the point here is not to spend your life second-guessing yourself. If you love somebody, you need to go all in. It might work out, it might not, but constantly wondering "what if" gets you nowhere. Always go forward, wherever it leads you. You might end up together, you might end up apart, but go forward. Don't look back.
Love this take. Thanks for the considerate watch and review.
For what it's worth, they unintentionally leveled up their marriage experience-wise, before even getting married.
I liked the acting but I honestly couldn't connect with the characters because I was too busy trying to figure out what was going on and what is this film trying to say.
She's at the redontist.
I need a redo after watching this! Where's the office?
Me too
How does the redo work? They going back and reliving all life to current day or just dipping back to change a detail?
I want to return to 11 minutes ago.
@@abraxasjinx5207 Same ,I'm surprised they didn't scramble their brains from all those ' re redos' 🙄 lol.
@@iComplainerI think it was dipping back ...but it seemed silly and pointless.
Excellent.
I'm not sure they're good for each other in the long run, but whatever.
I’m not sure either.
They are bad for one another, not to be the one who throws the the word toxic everywhere, but they are bad. I guess ending could mean that they have sorted everything out and they want to be better or that they can finally let go. Anyway, a good watch! :D
Not only they are bad for each other but they used the redo and it’s their fault for wasting their time.
Toxic for sure. 😊
@@johnpaulsummers Thank you all for sharing your creation with us.
Did them swallowing instead of spitting make a difference to their experiences?
😂 they are perfect for each other. Let those train wrecks meet.
In this universe i’d likely be an obsessive clean-slatarian too
I would love a redo , hurry up ai and make it happen 😂
Like......ummmmmm 'Total Recall' ......right, Arnie?😂🤣
So so good
The VS model would swing it!
On again, off again.
Well done!
I don't get it! Does it mean the reason why nature didn't give us a second shot or On again off again kind of a toxic relationship?
Basically, swallow your pride and leave chaos.
Pulleez, 😂😂😂😂😂
How did they hold a grudge for years. Honestly insane
"....Tearing each other apart....: - Karen Carpenter
I was thinking they were gonna off each other in the end, or something. They settled for worst!
RIGHT! I thought they were just going to jump over in their wedding clothes...but no.
I'm glad someone else thought the same thing 💯
😂
🔥🔥🔥🔥
11:00 What is the name of this song during the ending credits? I can only find Alex Mitchell, but not the name of singer or song. Thanks!
Hannah Jane Lewis is the artist. I think the track may be unreleased
It's "Fever Dream" by Hannah Jane Lewis. I hope that song is gonna get released in the near future. Even these few seconds are a banger to listen to.
@@Murikyu thank you!! I didn't get a notice about your reply , much appreciated!!
@johnpaulsummers thank you!! I didn't get a notification about your reply. I appreciate it!!

I love this take.
Screwing each other is all they know
And the wheel keeps spinning.
Não tem terapia de casal, remédios, alucinógenos, conselheiros matrimoniais que substitua o verdadeiro amor entre um casal. Porém, tal amor precisa ser construído sobre um alicerce forte, sólido : o temor piedoso. " Um cordão tríplice não pode ser facilmente rompido, disse o sábio Salomão.
